# RETRO 2020.10
Tooling
This update has focused on improvements to the toolchain and
general cleaups and bug fixes.
Of particular note: when building the C implementation, you
can now override the image and stack sizes when building. For
Python users, the core toolchain (retro-unu, retro-muri, and
retro-extend) has now been implemented in Python as well as C,
so you can now build RETRO without needing a C compiler.
## Notable Bugs Fixed
- added a `make image-js` target to generate the image.js
- fixed a bug in the glossary that caused names to appear twice
(reported by Kiyoshi)
- fixed a bug in retro-describe due to use of a deprecated word
- retro.py: fixed a bug in the stack depth reporting
(thanks to Scott McCallum for reporting this)
- fixed the `sh` instruction (which was totally broken prior to
this, thanks to Scott for reporting this)
## Build Improvements
- added a `make image-js` target to generate the image.js
- allow setting the image size, stack sizes when building
## Toolchain
- add Python implementations of retro-unu, retro-muri, retro-extend
- add support for generating an epub from the documentation
- add a tool to locate files using deprecated words
